The New York State Campaign,
New York Star.

The excellent nominations made by the
State convention, and the sound and ju-
dlclous platform adopted, no less than
the spirit of unity and enthusiasm that
pervaded the proceedings at Saratoga,
give assurance of an emphatic endorse
ment of the methods of the democratic
national and state administrations.
The New York Tribune told the truth,
yesterday when it said:
The Republican party must make up
Its mind that both n the city and state
it will have thoroughly united democ-
racy to meet this fall.
Never was the democracy of New York
moro thoroughly united or better
equipped for effective campaign work
The magnitude of the issues of the eloc--
tlon are well Understood. The state is
to sag whether the country shall go for
ward IN the path of democratic reform
or relapse into those dangerous abuses
which the people repudiated and re-
buked in 1884.
By the result IN New York this year
will the country judge the probabilities
of tho Eext presidential contest. 1t is, of
course possible that the republicans might
carry the state now and yet lose its
vote In the college of presidential cleo
| tors. But the world does not so estimate
the situation. To the general mind it
seems clear that as goes New York in
November, 1887, so will it go next year;
| and that as New York shall vote for
| presidential electors, so will be the result
of the national contest.
1t is not for us TO decline the gage of
battle for the skirmish lines of 1888. If
| our opponents choose TO place upon tho
democracy of New York the responsible
ity of determining the next presidency
in advance, it is our part to accept the
| duty of making good our position as the
| empire state of the democratic party with
light but determined hearts.
1t is within our power to elect a major
ity of the legislature as well as 1.-THE state
officers ia spite of all the combinations,
| tricks and lavish expenditure that will be
| employed against U.S. It is only necessary
! that we should bring out the full demo
cratic vote, and that eacl, democrati
| should labor to convince his doubling
neighbors of the necessity of the triumph
of our party to the wglfaae of the coun
| try and state.
The very important questions Of state
administration, and, to metropolitan resi-
! dents, the all-im portant issue of local self
| government will be discussed thoroughly
during the campaign. Were there no ma
tional interests involved, these state af
| fairs would demand our earnest and de-
| termined attention; but important as
they are, and helpful to the democratic
cause as the debate on them will prove,
! they are yet subsidiary to the national
| problem which the circumstances of the
| time force upon u.
Let US therefore enter upon the cam
| paign with the resolve TO foreshadOw the
triumphant reelection of Cleveland by Il
notable victory in the state which sent
| him To the nresidentinl chair.

A Good Executive Precedent.
Eewburg Register.

The statistically enterprising and usu-
ally accurate New York Sun has figured
out to its own satisfaction that President
Cleveland proposed western trip will cost
not less than $4,000 or $12 900 or at the
rate of $4,000 week. Whatever the OK
penses may be the country has already
been assured that not one dollar of il will
be taken from the money Of the tar-pay-
ers, dor from the private funds of
corporations of individuals who
might thus hope to SOW golden seed
for the future. The determination of the
president TO pay his own way will result
in establishing an executive precedent
that will meet with the sincere approval
of the people. who have grown weary of
seeing their chief magistrate dragged in
triumph at the wheels of railway cor
porstions or made objects of the polite
and calculating charity of potential
magnates who possess palace cara galore.

1t was the marshsl's delay in sending in

THE dream of those who have believed
that war would some time cease, because
the agents of destruction would make it
too costly in life and treasure to be en-
dured, seems about to be realized.
Zalinsky's dynamite gun must be near to
the climax. What leviathan ot the sea
can float within its range! Two shots
knock az ordinary vessel, q mile away,
into slivers. Can twenty-inch iron plate
armor withstand this new weapon of
destructiong that is the question. Pro
baby not. And the gun is yet in the
infancy of its development. If gelatine
be substituted for the charge of dyna-
mite 90 per cent, more of destructive
power will be carried. Nor need we per-
haps stop with gelatine. Possibly the
invention of explosives is also in its in
fancy. Roberto, recently discovered by
German chemists, is thought to be more
destructive than dynamite or gelatine.
A dynamite cartridge exploded on an
English rolledsleel rail best 1t and
caused riffs to open in the metal. A
roberite cartridge of the same weight,
exploded under similar conditions, broke
the rail in two. Nothing can be made
that will withstand large charges of such
material exploded against or upon it.
II will tear the steel plates off armored
vessels like the scales of fish. 1t will
carry away their turrets and guns, render
them helpless and soon send them to the
bottom of the sea. Many millions have
been lavished upon there enormous iron
clads. With the coming in of Zalinsky's
gun the money is as good as wasted.
Practically it makes an emo of naval
warfare.

They All Want to See Cleveland.
JanesvilIe Recorder.

People flock to see the president for
different reasons, but it makes no differ
ence what the motive is. Some go to see
his wife, as they say, but in fact they
want to see the president most OF all.
Democrats want TO see the only demo
cratic president since 1860, and the re-
publicans have great curiosity to see
the man who defeated Mr.. Blaine. To
good republicans Mr.. Blaine was regard
ed as invincible. and they could barely
credit their senses when they learned
that the pIumed knight with his
shining lance had been borne down
in the shock of battle. They are
curious to behold the victor in that cele-
brated contest, because he has so happily
disappointed their expectations. There
is no question about the excellence of
Mr.. CleveIand's administration, taken as
whole. Good republicans are pleased
at the outcome, although it is presumed
that party prejudice will keep some Of
them at home, and blind them TO this
rarest of democratic visions. We still in
sist, however, upon inviting all our re-
publican friends TO go to Madison. Rail
way fare will be reduced aud when we all
get there in line, the president won't be
able to distinguish ones politics from an

Later information places the number
lost at fourteen, and the saved at thir-
